Halo 5 Guardian’s Cartographer’s Gift pack coming soon

At The Game Awards last week, Bonnie Ross and the team at 343 Industries revealed the big December update for Halo 5 Guardians, called Cartographer’s Gift. This will include a load of free content, including maps, armour and weapons. To top it all off, Forge is coming back as well.

“The Cartographer’s Gift will add the biggest and most improved Forge mode ever to Halo 5: Guardians, in addition to brand-new Warzone (Battle of Noctus), Arena (Overgrowth) and Big Team Battle (Antifreeze and Entombed) maps, and more than 30 new REQs for armors, weapons, emblems and more.” You can see it all again in the trailer below.

With more new content coming every month, for free, this is DLC done right. Sure, the REQ packs are seen as microtransactions, but money gained through those payments have gone towards the $2 million prize pool of the Halo 5 World Championship, so everyone wins. Are you still enjoying Halo 5 with your friends? What’s your favourite mode?
